Have you see the novel yet? I believe the novel is better than what is on TV. I’m happy, for I meet a person who loves LoGH too.

I believe the novel is better than what is on TV.

Anyway, I have this series sitting on my harddrive and having only seen 12 episodes of it so far I can tell that I'm absolutely gonna love it. The characters and character relations and interactions are superb, the animation is just fine and you gotta love all the classical pieces they use as background music. The series is so dialogue-driven. It's great. Another reason I love Central-Anime. Not a whole lot of people download this show but they're steadily moving along. It'll be finished in not too long. Can't wait to watch the rest of it. I should probably start up on it again. This the longest OVA ever?

Its definitely one of the cult classic hits in Japan, and unlike Gundam its appeal is more specific (catering to space opera fans) than universal. I'm glad you brought this up, I've been wanting to watch this series for a long time now (due to its popularity in Japan), but just never got around to it. Another anime that is somewhat like this is Five Star Stories, although that movie is based off of a manga (the manga is much better than the movie, and much longer running too).

Some stayed close to the main characters while others is used as plot device. About one half will probably die. Tragedies will also strike the main characters throughout the series. The show makes you a believer of the quote, "War is...hell." PS: The show is based on novels written by the author of Heroic Legend of Arslan.

Looking forward to seeing if Earth gets involved, then. @kuromitsu: I'm glad I've stumbled across one of your favourites! I assumed no one had seen this, so it's great that you're such a massive fan, it gives me confidence to keep going! Episode 4 was my favourite so far- the backstory behind Reinhard's decision to join the army. I love this kind of escapist, character driven space opera so I can see myself in this one for the long run! @tj han: You'll love it, I'm sure! :) @Vallen Chaos Valiant:

Granted, it's not for everyone, but once one gets into it, it's really involving. The characters are wonderful (one can easily see how grown-up men can fanboy them, let alone women like me), the story is absolutely fantastic, the music is carefully and appropriately chosen to accompany the scenes, and the space battles are to die for. Btw, LoGH doesn't have much in common with MS Gundam, though it shares similarities with the UC Gundam saga in general. LoGH is more "realist" and down-to-earth (and more adult, in a way). It may not be apparent from the first episodes, but once the plot really kicks in (the first twenty-something episodes are only a sort of set-up), you'll see what I mean. :) Aaaand… you just discovered my all time favorite anime. :D I’m always happy to see people getting into LoGH, it’s such an underrated series… it deserves much more attention that it gets.

Are you sure? The Terra-rists would disagree... Earth was apparently close enough that they demanded people of LoGH return to it. Sure, it's nearly mythical and classified as Holy-Land to the nutty Terran Biships, but that doesn't mean Earth isn't within reaching distance... "In a universe far, far away from Earth…"
